Has anyone used a dremel for edges? I'm learning that the initial flatness of your edges really affect the end results most. I've seen some videos where a dremel is used for flattening the edges before the first application.

Heya, just to double check do you mean with a sanding bit to level the edge? If so, yeah I do 🤗 they are a great tool however, like all tools a little practice before application is needed. Couple of tips from me if you're interested would be
When sanding do long even strokes across the whole edge so it's nice and straight without any dips or curves even if it's only one area of the edge that needs sanding (within reason 😅)
Keep the sanding drum flat/parallel with the edge (this is easier said than done) as the sanding bit is quite small so it's easy to have it as a slight angle which would ruin symmetry on front and back.
If you are edge painting use the smallest edge beveler you have to take off the flappy bits that are left over by sanding, I use a 0. Sorry I know flappy isnt very technical but I couldnt think of a better word 🤣
You can always start at a lower speed so you have more control.
I hope this helps
